do you expect an auto update?, e.g.:

- user A and B edit a shared spreadsheet simultaneously
- user A saved changes
- user B will see changes immediatelly without saving?

I see that saving is refresh. In that sense such editing without seeing what other collaborators are doing, is quite useless but I see that this is not meant for that. I guess possibly wontfix is the end of current issue.
I discovered another issue during testing this which leads to crash of LibreOffice. Will report a new issue.
